The PSC provides enterprise-level program coordination and administrative integration across BRAES, supporting coordinated execution across the portfolio by maintaining integrated schedules, milestones, deliverables, actions, risks, reporting, documentation, and cross-functional dependencies.

• Maintain program-management documentation, templates, trackers, repositories, and records.
• Monitor upcoming requirements, milestones, and deadlines and elevate potential schedule, resource, dependency, or deliverable issues.
• Coordinate inputs and activities across scientific review, Consumer Review, reviewer engagement, quality, training, Contractor-Owned Contractor-Operated (COCO) peer review system support, administrative and logistics, and other functional areas.
• Support program metrics, dashboards, workload visibility, and management reporting.
• Coordinate with eBRAP personnel as necessary to support required interfaces and dependencies without assuming eBRAP Task Order functions.
• Support implementation and maintenance of standardized program-management processes and documentation.
• Promote visibility and communication across concurrent Program Task Orders and shared-service functions.
